Egor Dëmin and Mikel Brown Jr. See Limited Minutes Together for Nets

Brooklyn Nets rookies Egor Dëmin and Mikel Brown Jr. have played just four minutes together through the team's first three games. Coach Jordi Fernández noted that while he would like to pair them more, rotations are dictated by game flow and long-term caution, particularly regarding Brown's recovery from a back injury. The duo managed a plus-5 rating in their lone stint against Cleveland, as a winless Nets squad navigates early-season caution.
